MBBS, MD, FRCP
I have been a Consultant in Rheumatology and General Medicine for over 12 years. In my first 2 years at Kingston I established an Osteoporosis Service locally. They now run a service with all the latest treatments available. I then trained in musculoskeletal US and image guided spinal injections. This aids early detection of inflammatory arthritis and allows accurate aspiration & injections, if needed.
I am experienced with complex biologics treatments with over 400 patients under our care at the unit. Linking in to the US theme I am very experienced at dealing with sports and soft tissue injuries and have a long association with sporting bodies. Having been an international sportsman myself, I have a good insight in to the goals and needs of injured athletes.
I am also experienced at administering autologous blood injections for difficult tendonopathies. I also offer treatment for the general rheumatology problems of osteoarthritis, gout and more rare autoimmune disorders.
Some of the principal treatments carried out by Dr Shahid Jawed at Spire include:

After passing his MRCP, Dr Jawed joined the London Rheumatology and GIM Registrar rotation in 1992. He was awarded a 3 year ARC Research Fellowship in 1995 based at The Royal London Hospital where he researched the effects of exercise in inflamed joints. An MD for this work was awarded in 1999. Dr Jawed was appointed at Kingston in Feb 2000.
Dr Jawed's spare time is spent mostly with his family generally doing as he is told!. In his younger days he was a two time British Powerlifting Champion and placed 5th in the 1997 World Championships. He still goes to the gym regularly and coach youngsters when he can. He competes once a year in the Masters, it takes that long to recover! Dr Jawed has been the Medical Advisor for the BDFPA for nearly 20 years.
